BBC NEWS | Science/Nature: "Archaeologists have rediscovered a huge rock art site in southern India where ancient people used boulders to make musical sounds in rituals. A dyke on Kupgal Hill contains hundreds and perhaps thousands of rock art engravings, or petroglyphs, a large quantity of which date to the Neolithic, or late Stone Age (several thousand years BC).
Modern-day commercial granite quarrying has already disturbed some sections of the hill. A rock shelter with even older rock art to the north of Kupgal Hill has been partially destroyed by quarrying. "
